There are also other things to be considered by the letter of the law here.
So to fire Rove before the investigation is complete would be like some chick you don't know storming into your work place screaming you raped her, and then you being fired before any court preceedings or conviction takes place.
Ford called it "payback", but if you look at it from the other side of the fence you could also say the same about Wilson.
Rove has kicked his ass in every campaign they have ever been in.
So there is motivation for a witch-hunt to bring Rove down.
It's too complex to judge from one perspective without being biased.
One needs to examine the Big Picture.
As for Bush, I have no confidence in the man and have seen too many shifts in opinion since operations began in Iraq to support him any further.
